Sesame-Ginger Chicken

I’ve been accumulating a few good recipes to keep over the past 2 months, and this one tops the list. Not only is it a time-saver with the crock pot cooking, it’s just as good as leftovers! I served over long-grain white rice.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon sesame oil

8 bone-in chicken thighs (2 3/4 pounds), skinned

Cooking spray

1/4 cup lower-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

5 teaspoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon cold water

2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

2 tablespoons sliced green onions

Preparation

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add chicken; cook 4 minutes on each side or until golden.
